Today, we got our initial look at Amber Heard in character courtesy of a photo taken by director Zack Snyder and provided to IGN along with some striking concept art and sketches by the film’s
costume designer, Michael Wilkinson.
This is the first we’ve seen Heard in a film role since her tabloid-dominating divorce from Johnny Depp earlier this year.
For those unfamiliar with the character, Mera has long been a part of the Atlantis power structure.
Introduced in Aquaman No. 11 in 1963, she was
largely a supporting player for much of her existence. But Mera turned out to have a champion in DC’s chief creative officer Geoff Johns. Johns plucked the character out of DC purgatory for a
lead role in 2009’s Blackest Night storyline, in which the undersea queen helps save the DC Universe. In the years since, she has become a fixture in the comics, ruling alongside Aquaman as
an equal.
